cadence

with OCR getting better and better captchas soon wont be able to provide
enough protection against bots fetching bridges anymore. but even if it
was safe enough a censor could still hire a cheap worker to type in
captchas all day long.
if you let a neural network group people by typing cadence and only supply
a group with a subset of the bridges then a single person/bot will never
be able to pull the whole database.
